I was not prepared for the resulting attention. Besides disliking the diminishment of privacy and the inhibiting quality of feeling watched, I valued my anonymous, boring life. In fact, I didn't see how I could write honestly without it.

Of course, some reporters took this as a personal challenge to intrude, but in general, my quiet life let me concentrate on my work.
